Chapter 5: The Secret Realm of the Novice Trial
Lu Ran ignored the excited sunglasses in the form of Mr. Ha.
In addition to weapons and amulets, he also prepared some wound medicine, mineral water, snacks and some wild survival props.
I don't know if I can use it, but it's always right to carry it.
It's just a little overweight...... But it's not a big problem, it's a big deal to throw it away at a critical moment.
In this way, in Lu Ran's continuous preparation and continuous admonition to Mr. Ha, time passed little by little.
"Do you really understand?"
"The contract strengthens your physique, how do you feel that your IQ is not strengthened together."
During this period, Lu Ran looked at Mr. Ha who couldn't wait tiredly, and had a headache.
For example, he said that the next enemy might be a creature they hadn't seen before, and they needed to be careful, but Mr. Ha kept showing disdain.
What does this mean?
Lu Ran's heart pulled out the cold.
He had a bad feeling, but there were still a few minutes left in the countdown, and he didn't want to think about it too much.
"Alright, so be it."
"You come back first." Lu Ran summoned a black card, this black card, at this time he can be included in his body, or he can summon it at any time.
The crossing is imminent, Lu Ran first took Mr. Ha back into the black card, and then put the black card away, so that at least he and Mr. Ha will be separated because of teleportation.
"Woooooooo Mr. Ha entered the black card, and Lu Ran began to close his eyes and recuperate.
Although the eyes are closed, the countdown is still clearly visible in front of you.
Time goes on......
Three... Two... One...... With the arrival of the last second, Lu Ran couldn't help but get nervous.
Anyway, he's just a high school student.
At the same time, at this moment, spatial ripples appeared, where Lu Ran was, the space was distorted like a whirlpool, and through rapid distortion, Lu Ran's figure was swallowed up and disappeared into the room.
However, although Lu Ran disappeared, the backpack he was carrying, and the iron sword he was holding tightly were not teleported.
Except for the necessary clothing and the amulet around the neck, all foreign things, even food and drink, were left in place.
……
Lu Ran felt as if his body was constantly experiencing overweight and weightlessness, and he didn't expect the teleportation process to be so uncomfortable at all, and after the feeling of shaking the sky disappeared, Lu Ran found that he had really come to a new place.
He opened his eyes.
What came into view was a dimly lit forest.
Before he could take a closer look, familiar words and sounds reappeared.
[Teleportation completed.] 】
[Current Location: Forest of Demon Cats (Novice Trial Secret Realm)]
【Difficulty: Easy】
[Trial Mission: Survive for a day.] 】
[Secret Introduction: The Forest of Demon Cats is a natural labyrinth formed by a variety of dense trees, rich in internal resources, and once inhabited by many extraordinary creatures.
Twenty years ago, a strange black rainstorm mutated the creatures of the forest and launched a beast tide on the surrounding towns.
The Empire's Beast Legion reacted quickly, crushing the tide and purging the forest of powerful mutated creatures.
After twenty years of restoration, only the demon cats and some weak transcendent creatures are still active here, and the forest has been renamed the Forest of Demon Cats.
As a rookie beast master, you have strayed into this place, and your biggest task at the moment is to survive and wait for rescue. 】
[Hint (1): This secret realm is a projection of the Forest of Demon Cats, and internal resources and creatures cannot be brought out and contracted. 】
[Tip (2): Depending on the trialist's combat performance in the secret realm, different levels of rewards can be obtained after completing the mission. 】
[Hint (3): When the trialist falls into a near-death state, it is judged that the mission has failed, and he is forced to return. 】
[Hint (4): The trialist temporarily obtains the Eye of Data, which can detect resources and biological information in the inner part of the secret territory. 】
[Happy adventure and trial begins!] 】
"I see." Seeing prompt (3), Lu Ran felt that the creator of the black card seemed to be quite humane.
But not much.
Although the trialist is nearing death, he will be forcibly teleported away, which is very intimate, but the problem is that he may not be treated if he teleports back, just like the person who posted it, and there is a greater possibility that the trialist will not even have a chance to enter the near-death state, so he will be killed in an instant.
The human body is fragile.
In addition, is this secret realm a projection of another world? Black Rainstorm... Beast tide... Damn, it doesn't sound like a newbie dungeon.
Still tread carefully, pleasant is impossible to be pleasant......
"Uh-woo!!"
Lu Ran summoned Mr. Ha again, and said at the same time:
"I didn't bring weapons and supplies." Lu Ran regretted, but he was already mentally prepared not to bring those things over.
"According to the hint, all the enemies and resources in this place are illusory, and I don't know if I can find something to eat here and bring it out, but can I use it here?"
"Wang." Mr. Ha, who came out again, emptied his brain, and did not follow Lu Ran's analysis to think, but ran around very happily.
Lu Ran is silent, damn it, do something serious Ha Zong, this is not a walk out!
I said......" Lu Ran just wanted to say something.
Rustle rustle......
Suddenly, a voice sounded, interrupting Lu Ran's thoughts, making Lu Ran's expression condense and look around cautiously.
"Uh-huh." Mr. Ha, who was circling around Lu Ran, was also vigilant, as if he smelled some danger.
Something is approaching!
It quickly stopped, its whole body tensed, and protected it in front of Lu Ran.
It was dimly lit, with only a few rays of sunlight falling through the leaves and rustling louder in the silence of the forest.
Standing on the wet ground, Lu Ran wanted to judge where the sound came from, but in the end, he couldn't judge the success, but Mr. Ha locked in one direction the whole time, looking at that side with serious eyes.
"Is it there?" Lu Ran looked towards the half-human-tall black bushes.
The rustling sound continued, and finally, as the sound continued to become clear, the bushes in front of Lu Ran and Mr. Ha were directly picked up.
The creature that suddenly appeared let out a low roar, its red pupils staring at Lu Ran and Mr. Ha on the opposite side, and the ferocity in its eyes could not be hidden.
At the same time, Mr. Ha's hair exploded all over his body, and he also howled loudly at the creatures that appeared!!
"Wang!!"
dared to murder them, this revenge, it wrote down.
This is......
Lu Ran's eyes lit up, this was a cat-like creature with a dark red body and a very thin torso, extremely long claws, and long gray hair on its head!
Demon cat!
[Race]: Demon cat
[Attribute]: Unawakened
[Race Level]: Medium Extraordinary
[Growth Level]: Level 2
[Introduction]: A bloody hunter in the jungle who likes to tear apart each other's bodies to draw blood.
The Eye of Data that Lu Ran temporarily obtained took effect.
staring at the demon cat, soon all the information of the demon cat emerged.
"Racial level, according to my understanding, is the strength of the race, tigers are stronger than cats and dogs, cats and dogs are stronger than rabbits and other small herbivores, the racial level of this demon cat is the same as that of Mr. Ha, Mr. Ha is not dominant."
"The growth level is linked to the growth stage with a high probability, similar to the early childhood and growth period, the higher the level, the stronger the physical fitness, Harbin is only 1 level, but it has 2 levels, which is not good."
In an instant, Lu Ran judged that this guy was not easy to mess with, and he didn't look like a monster who was used to brush up on actual combat experience for novices.
Under the confrontation between the two sides, the atmosphere became more and more solid, Lu Ran held his breath, observed the surrounding environment, and tried to calm himself as calmly as possible.
If the novice task is to survive for a day, there is no need to go toe-to-toe with this kind of guy, especially when you have just entered the secret realm.
If you want to last a day, it is better to find supplies and go to a safe place for a day to avoid unnecessary battles and only engage in some unacceptable battles to conserve your strength.
Now......
If you turn around and run away, if it goes well, you may be able to avoid a battle, but if you stimulate the opponent's hunting instinct and the opponent catches up, no matter whether the escape is successful or not, you will be very passive in this unknown forest and waste a lot of physical strength.
At the moment, the best option is...... Scare off each other!
Next, after careful consideration, Lu Ran made a move that made Mr. Ha and the demon cat very stunned.
I saw Lu Ran solemnly looking at the demon cat, suddenly stretched out his arms, made himself look bigger, and roared at the demon cat!
"Ula !!!" Lu Ran shouted, trying to scare the other party away.
His father, who often deals with wild animals, told him that when encountering a ferocious beast in the wild, it is best not to turn around and run away, but to look directly at it and show momentum, so that he can die with more dignity.
And, if you're lucky, if that beast doesn't know much about humans, there's a very small chance of scaring them off.
However, after completing a set of intimidation actions, Lu Ran always felt that the atmosphere seemed to be even more wrong.
Mr. Ha showed a confused expression.
After the demon cat's facial expression distorted for a while, it roared and burst out violently, attacking Lu Ran.
Lu Ran couldn't help but curse, which step is wrong? In addition, my own telepathy seems to be ineffective against this phantom!
The demon cat's movements are very sensitive, but fortunately, Lu Ran has also been strengthened, and his movements can be seen clearly.
Now, Lu Ran has also given up other ideas and plans to face the demon cat. Just a cat, he has been in the past ten years, I don't know how many of them.
Even if it's a little tiger, he's pinched and lifted it.
No, no, he is now a beast master, and he must gradually become familiar with commanding pet beasts in battle, rather than fighting in person.
"Mr. Ha! Save me! Lu Ran shouted, realizing his identity.
"Limit it first! I'm looking for weapons! ”
At the same time, Mr. Ha, who was confused, also followed the movements of the demon cat, and his eyes became sharp, and he pounced towards the attacking demon cat.
Between the collision of the two figures, Lu Ran, who took a step back to look for weapons such as wooden sticks and stones, only heard a miserable scream.
"Meow !!!" The terrible scream accompanied by a low roar echoed through the dense forest, allowing Lu Ran to look quickly.
Immediately, he saw Mr. Ha press the demon cat to the ground, bite its throat, and roar domineeringly, while countless blood splashed out.
The demon cat, which looks extremely difficult to mess with, was killed by one blow.
"Forehead......" Lu Ran was stunned in place, only feeling that the stone at his feet was not to be taken, and it was not to be taken if he did not take it.
So, I analyzed it for a long time just now, and what is it for fighting wits and courage with the demon cat?
Myself...... There seems to be something wrong in the evaluation of the strengthened combat effectiveness of Mr. Ha and the combat effectiveness of the demon cat.
"Uh-woo!!" At this moment, Mr. Ha, who was standing in the distance, turned his head and shouted, looking at Lu Ran, as if to say, easily, like a god of war.
Lu Ran pondered.
It was loaded.
Something is wrong, is it true, there is also a gap between the medium and extraordinary?
And between level 1 and level 2, the gap is not as big as you think?
Judging from the size of the cat, this demon cat is indeed more than one level behind Mr. Ha.
Sure enough, in nature, body size largely determines combat power! All right......
"Amazing, worthy of the generals I trained." Lu Ran could only comment, he really didn't expect that the normal Mr. Ha could be so fierce.
"Wang!" Hearing this, Mr. Ha showed a wise expression, what he was saying, I didn't understand.
